Things To Do This Week Each week, I take a look at events and happenings in The Valley and choose three things that look adventurous from Aspen down to Carbondale.

Snow Snow SnowIt goes without saying, but I am going to say it anyway, that after this fantastic powder we received, my advice would be to get on the mountain, any mountain! If you have not been to the “New” Gwyn’s High Alpine, I would definitely recommend it. I also hear the new BBQ place at Buttermilk, Home Team BBQ, is fantastic!

I wanted to ensure that other visitors to the valley could have one resource that has it all – dining, announcements, seasonal activities, cultural, entertainment, and more. So I founded Around Aspen to help everyone find a great time in the Valley.
